Default Hello and introduction

Hello everyone. I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I just purchased a 1995 Volvo 850 GLT as a 3rd vehicle. It's green with tan leather interior, and it has roughly 131K on the clock.

I'm looking forward to learning about Volvos and to getting into some DIY projects, including a broken odometer. Fortunately, the previous owner always had the vehicle serviced at the same dealer, so I know the mileage is pretty close (give or take 3,000 miles).

I look forward to getting to know you and learning from your Volvo wisdom as I get to know the car.

Here's a photo:

Thanks! Glad to be here. I find forums like these to be incredibly useful for our other vehicles, and I'm certainly looking forward to this one.

Will do, thanks.

Too early to tell yet. My 16 year old son will be one of the primary drivers. My goal is to teach him how to change the oil, tune up the car, etc.

I'm sure I'll need lots of help as we get into it.
